If you plan to drive off-road, confirm with the rental agency whether it's permitted. Not all vehicles are suited for off-road conditions.

Before leaving the rental lot, inspect the vehicle for any pre-existing damage and ensure it’s recorded. Taking photos can help avoid disputes upon return.

If sharing driving responsibilities, check the policies regarding additional drivers. Some companies charge fees for each extra driver, while others may include it for free under certain conditions.

Most car rental companies will ask for a credit card deposit, which is usually held temporarily. Inquire about the specific deposit amount and the process for releasing it once the rental is complete.

Before you book, review the rental agreement for any hidden fees, such as airport surcharges, additional driver costs, or penalties for late returns. Awareness helps in budgeting appropriately.
